Before carrying out any maintenance work, disconnect the electric and pneumatic supplies. Moreover, it is necessary to break the bead without load 3-4 times in order to let the air in pressure go out of the circuit.

• Defective parts must be replaced exclusively by expert personnel using the manufacturer’s

parts. • Removing or tampering with safety devices (pressure limiting and regulating valves) is

extremely forbidden.

In particular the Manufacturer shall not be held responsible for complaints deriving from the use of spare parts made by other manufacturers or for damage caused by tampering or removal of safety systems.

• Clean and grease weekly the sliding guides. • For the rest, ,make reference to the installation, use and maintenance guide of tire changer, on

which HELP and PRESS ARM are mounted.
